1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) is a hereditary neuromuscular syndrome associated with peripheral neuropathy. We describe a case of long-standing CMT disease who underwent general anesthesia for a total knee replacement and developed significant perioperative hypotension. Clinical assessment revealed vasoplegia due to underlying autonomic dysfunction as the most likely cause. Further review also revealed a similar episode of intraoperative hypotension during a previous anesthetic. After failure of conservative strategies, the patient was started on a vasopressor infusion. However, hypotension persisted in the early postoperative period. This case serves to highlight the significance of autonomic dysfunction in CMT patients which can cause perioperative hypotension, a finding that has been rarely reported in the literature. We also discuss current diagnostic modalities that may be useful in managing cases of autonomic dysfunction that may present with hypotension.
